  1. 1. Cadillac Escalade Platinum - This would be my daily driver 2. 1967 Oldsmobile Toronado 3. 2013 Chevrolet Avalanche Black Diamond LTZ Z71 4. Cadillac XTS V-Sport Platinum 5. Jeep Grand Cherokee Summit Hemi - My Partner's daily driver 6. Cadillac XLR-V 7. 1937 Cadillac V16 8. 1985 Cadillac Seville - Engine replaced with the 1996 LT-1 9. 1996 Eagle Talon TSi AWD 5-speed manual 10. I'd upgrade my current 1981 Toronado to a 1985 Toronado Caliente Convertible.... same engine swap as the Seville above.
  2. So for us 'Mericans, we're limited to GM domestic brands, Chrysler, Dodge, Ram, Jeep, Ford, Lincoln, Mercury, (Desoto, Studebaker, Hudson, and Edsel too I guess)
  3. When you're sorting through 7 years of articles... M Coupe starts to look a lot like Mini Cooper
  4. This car's layout works best with a gas range extender. Full EVs generally need to be purpose built to be efficient in packaging.
  5. Both of those are coupes.
  6. Let's see your top 5!
  7. Sorry, I just don't trust Serg at this point.
  8. These are such beautiful cars from the outside, but the interior leaves a lot to be desired, especially for that price. I have driven one of the original Fisker Karmas, and it was a neat thing to drive. What they really need to do is get the Atlantic going.
  9. So, because of the suggestions above, I started doing a major forum reorganization. It's going to take me at least a few days to get everything into the right place as it is a very manual process. Thanks for your patience.
  10. Sleep makes me productive the other two thirds
  11. When is the last time you bought a sedan? I can't think of one in the entire time you've been here.
  12. Getting very close to running it sounds
  13. try and get some sleep....
  14. A battle it regularly and do my best to avoid those pills.
  15. Yeah, that's kinda what I thought.... plus they get out of date and I forget to correct them.
  16. Forum Descriptions: Yea or Nay? (some of them have to stay, but I was planning on wiping out the descriptions under each brand)
  17. Market value isn't made up, it's a very real thing.
  18. Paired with an engine that actually has torque, it's not bad at all after they reflashed it. Behind the 2.4, the 9speed hunts for torque it will never find.
  19. Yeah, that. And you misspelled "dumpster".
  20. It's the way of the future I guess, but even the nicest of OLED screens can't compete with an actual physical set of gauges that is well done. It just won't have the depth. 2d v. 3d
  21. Very nice ride!
  22. Specifics... screenshots.... what exactly is too much info? Edit: Keep in mind @Suaviloquent that as a moderator, you see more than the normal visitor
  23. Nissan's issues are further forward than the transmission.... that awful 2.4 liter 4-cylinder they have is very low on refinement. Really... give me an old Ecotech 2.4 that never had an oil change and it would be about the same as a new Nissan 2.4. The CVT is fine in the VQ powered vehicles... I actually really like it. But paired with the 2.4, it brings out the worst of that engine. The primary redeeming quality of the hybrid is that it would lower the workload of the 4-cylinder, making it more tolerable to drive.
